A friday evening of Metropolism in Rome

Have you heard the quote "The best camera is the one you have with yourself"? Yesterday evening this camera was for me my blackberry...it's officially started my favourite season in Rome...SPRING!! If there is something that can make this city even more beautiful than it normally is, this thing is with no doubt spring...walking around the city centre in this period is really a sweet pleasure, the air is warm, there's a nice flower smell, there are many tourists enjoying their vacation, you can eat or drink outiside in a lovely atmosphere....my friday evening yesterday started this way, with a nice walk in Piazza di Spagna.....

Then, I attended a vernissage at Palazzo Ruspoli. There was the opening of an exhibition about Metropolism. This is an artistic movement born in the '80s in Europe, as an answer of the Old Continent to the American Pop Art. I could admire works by all the artists who signed the Manifest of this artistic movement: Nico Paladini, Carlos Grippo, Timur Incedayi and Antonio Sciacca. If you're interested, the exhibition will last 'till April 2.
